2025 Murakami Collection

But are they for sale or display only?

Crazy thing for me I ordered the Murakami 26 toiletries pouch ( Nightmare ensued when UPS lost it and LV cs was zero help but thankfully it showed up on my doorstep ) it came tossed into a regular LV box with no cardboard inside just the invoice envelope and it was wrapped in a blue ribbon, no bag, no special ribbon, no stickers. I ordered separately a mono mm cosmetic pouch and that came wrapped in the Murakami ribbon, with the Murakami tag and a small ( sealed ) envelope with the stickers. I think they just hurling these packages out as fast as they can and there’s no rhyme or reason to what the inside packaging will be.
Hurling 📦 out really made me lol. Must be accurate as it’s the only thing that makes sense

On Monday morning, thanks to the wonderful ppl on this forum, it was posted that LV Trainers had come back in stock on the US website. The website wasn't working but on a whim, I was able to jump on the app and get the order through in minutes. This was nothing short of miraculous given the web/app disaster with this launch.

The shoes are stunning. Cant even say enough about them.

Normally when I order directly off the web without a CA, the Southern California distribution center ships them to me. I have NEVER EVER gotten a web order in under 8 days. The order just got here in THREE DAYS.

In the past when I have ordered direct from the web, my orders ALWAYS come from that distribution center, so I was shocked to see these shoes came from my favorite LV boutique in downtown San Francisco!

The reason I am mentioning this is that it looks like US web orders are being pulled directly from store shelves, which may be further depleting inventory from the boutiques and from what CAs can access for us. Would love to hear back from others who received items ordered via web WHERE their boxes came from - a store or a distribution center.

See? Your 📦 was hurled out as fast as possible. 🤣 I totally agree. I picked these up when I saw them in person. I love that they aren’t a a 100% stark white

I wore them around the bedroom. They are absolutely gorgeous but they are very stiff, very supportive and very heavy. They have a low crowned vamp, but wider heel. I have narrow bony feet, so shoes this stiff will give me terrible blisters. I'm heartbroken because they are BEAUTIFUL and I live in tennis shoes!
Heavy shoes are never a good idea. Buy something else. Footwear is particular for each individual.
 
My carryall came today! I’m so surprised because the shipping info says it hasn’t been picked up by the carrier yet! What a mess this has all been. But it’s in perfect condition and a very practical bag (minus the weird ties but I’ll deal with them lol) sorry no pics yet! No special packaging, but that is not surprising. Good luck everyone waiting! Honestly I would have loved to order a few more items, like the PA in black MC, but barely got this one thing to go through online!!!
 
So update to my black Nano Speedy, it went into "Order in Preparation" today!

For context, I'm in Dubai and my order was placed on launch day cause I was too slow to place the pre-order when it opened for VIC back in Dec and they closed it early. When my SA placed my launch day order, the white PA came the next day but the black NS was "Pending Order Validation" all week and my SA had no clue if it was going to get fulfilled or not.

I was coming in tomorrow to pick up my PA so I'm hoping it arrives tomorrow and I can just get them together!
 
For those of you that buy sneakers from LV, I was thinking of getting a pair. Do you use them daily or a couple times per week or just wear them on special occasions. They are not cheap as you know but I’ve never owned a luxury pair of sneakers. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Because I am a sick, sick person, if I really like a pair of shoes, I will sometimes buy two identical pairs so I can wear one pair stress-free (knowing I have a back-up in case the first is ruined 💀). Outside of the gym/exercising, I wear designer shoes all day, every day; for me, the sneakers and casual loafers get worn the most and have the lowest cost-per-wear.

With that said, the MC sneakers are *very* specific; if you want a pair that you can wear multiple times a week with a lot of different looks, I'd reccomend solid white as your first pair, instead.
 
Thanks for posting, now I want the TP, going to have to try add that to the list.
You're most welcome @cXm and good luck getting one, please lmk how you go. I just love mine and had 4 people try to order it the day alone in Dubai I wore it in store. One was my friend who I met for lunch that day, so after lunch we went back into LV and she pre paid and will get hers in a month or so and then 3 others were different ladies who saw me and my bag in the LV store that day. Once I showed them how I attached it, they wanted one too and went to pre order, also the price point is pretty good considering, and the black mc mono really pops and is even prettier IRL x
 
The leather will break in to a certain extent, but that won't change the width of the heel or the heavy weight of the shoe. They are gorgeous though. If there was any combo of liners, heel grippers I could use to make them wearable for me I would.
That’s so sad! I had to size down 1/2 half a size like I do with AF1’s and I find the MC very similar to AF1, which are also heavy but very comfy for me. I did try a full size down and TBH they felt softer and also fit as they had been tried on vs the one I got which were box fresh. Dunno if a half size smaller would be better for you, but what a pain to even attempt swapping.
 
View attachment 6114151View attachment 6114152yesterday I was in Milan in two stores, they displayed the bags but everyone is waitlisted. i don’t like waiting lists

today i remained in my own city (Genova in Italy) and texted a sales rep I hadn’t contacted in years (I’m used to just stalking a bag and then going inside the store to buy it) this time I tried to be lucky and I was.. she replied and we set up at appointment for 16:30 …

i guess I was lucky LOL
Your Clochette is much longer than mine. I prefer the longer one. I wonder why some are longer. I've tried to pull it down but it bounces back up to being short.
